Check out their website. The 'About Us' tab has Dallas on the West Coast and San Diego in Texas. How good do you think the Quality Control is going to be on your wheels?

They copied the look of the Volks Time Attack, black & red lip.
You should check out the Volks.

You have a classy car, and be very careful to keep it that way. There's a fine line between classy and F'd up. I like the style of the wheels, but personally i wouldnt trust a company such as ROTA. Spend a couple hundred more and get some wheels that are good quality, and that will hold their value if you decide to resell them.

ROTA sucks period. Even people with Hondas don't like them.

Rotas are extremely poor quality. Cast, heavy, and brittle. I recommend you steer clear of them.

BTW, they're made in the Phillippines. You can buy a set of 4 of them there for under $200.
